Question about donations

My first choice is Biden and I have donated.
There are other candidates I really like and I sometimes feel I should donate to keep them in.(for example Castro) .
Is that just counter productive to donate to lesser candidates just to help them stay in?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Primarily because I felt they deserved an opportunity to be heard at the earlier debates. Never know what ideas will resonate and gain traction.

For POTUS primaries, I'm only donating to 1. That 1 may change as time goes on.
For additional donations that I can afford, I'd rather donate to Senate battleground candidates, and keeping my Representative in Texas 7th district.

No hard rules on that though, if you feel inclined to support multiple candidates, heck, it's your money and your choice!
